Crown Point Traumatic Brain Injury Lawyer

If you are not at fault in an accident that left you with a traumatic brain injury (TBI), you may be able to seek compensation from the responsible party. 

The Crown Point traumatic brain injury lawyers at Isaacs & Isaacs Personal Injury Lawyers are here to help you explore your legal options and decide on your best options within Indiana law.

Traumatic Brain Injuries Are Costly

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a traumatic brain injury is loosely defined as damage to the brain that affects its normal operation. It is a leading cause of hospitalization and death in the U.S., and more than 200,000 people are hospitalized each year due to TBI-related problems. Over 6,000 of those hospitalized are Indiana residents. 

Traumatic brain injuries often cause significant long-term effects, including chronic disability. The Indiana State Department of Health estimates that more than 112,000 Indiana residents currently suffer from chronic disability due to TBI. 

Lifetime costs for long-term TBI health care can range from $1 million to $3 million. For victims and their loved ones, hospital bills, lost income, and other injury-related losses can be debilitating. If your accident was caused by someone else’s actions, you may have legal recourse. Contact a TBI attorney familiar with Indiana law to discuss your options.

TBI Signs and Symptoms

The CDC categorizes traumatic brain injuries as mild, moderate, or severe. A mild traumatic brain injury such as a concussion can often be treated with a short doctor’s visit and at-home recovery. A moderate to severe TBI often requires hospitalization and can result in severe cognitive or functional damage. 

Traumatic brain injuries can occur in a variety of circumstances, including:

  • Falls from a height or down the stairs
  • Trips, slips, and falls into the wall, floor, or other stationary object
  • Objects falling from a height onto the head
  • Motor vehicle accidents
  • Firearm discharge to the head
  • Blunt force trauma
  • Flying objects striking or penetrating the skull

In Indiana, the two most common causes of TBI are unintentional falls and motor vehicle collisions. 

Symptoms of Traumatic Brain Injury

If you or a loved one have experienced any of the above, seek medical attention as soon as possible and watch for the following symptoms of traumatic brain injury.

  • Headaches or worsening head pain
  • Difficulty concentrating or slurred speech
  • Extreme mood swings, anxiety, and irritability
  • Insomnia or difficulty waking up
  • Blurred vision and light sensitivity
  • Ringing in the ears
  • Inexplicable bad taste or smell
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Uncoordinated or uncontrolled movement
  • Numbness or tingling in feet, hands, arms, or legs
  • Seizures or convulsions
  • Unconsciousness or unresponsiveness

Seek Medical Attention ASAP

Swelling, fluid buildup, infection, bleeding in the skull, and blood clots can cause TBI injury to worsen rapidly. It is therefore crucial to see a doctor as soon as possible if you experience any of the above symptoms. Even if you feel fine after an accident, it is a good idea to have an emergency room doctor check your head. Adrenaline from the accident can mask your pain and cause you to overlook critical symptoms.

A traumatic brain injury can change your life in an instant. If your TBI causes cognitive issues or long-term disability, adjusting to your new reality can be a challenge. When faced with these difficulties, filing an insurance claim or lawsuit may be the last thing on your mind. 

Unfortunately, the insurance company and at-fault party will be working overtime to reduce their liability and do everything they can to pay you as little as possible.

  • Extended healthcare, such as in-home care, medication, and hospitalization
  • Medical equipment, including wheelchairs, hospital beds, walkers, and canes
  • Therapy and rehabilitation, including psychological, physical, occupational, and speech therapy

Don’t Miss Your Legal Deadlines

Indiana Law IC § 34-11-2-4 provides injury victims with a limited time in which to file a civil personal injury lawsuit for damages. This time can pass quickly when you are dealing with hospitalizations and recovery. In order to ensure that you have the best chance of recovering damages, contact a traumatic brain injury attorney as soon as possible after your accident. 

The amount of time you have to file a lawsuit can differ depending on the circumstances surrounding the injury. A Crown Point TBI attorney with Isaacs & Isaacs Personal Injury Lawyers can help you determine how much time you have, and whether you have the grounds to file a lawsuit.
